We had the most amazing meal! So much delicious food, and our server Carrie was beyond wonderful. Very accommodating for celiacs, as well! We will absolutely be returning - highly recommend!!!

Amazing lamb!!! Great gluten-free wraps, too!

Absolutely love eating here, the vibe is amazing and the staff are top tier! The food and atmosphere are so unique and as a Gluten Free Vegan who doesn't drink, trust me when I say this is a haven. I have been a few times so I have tried most of the food. Alot of the menu is already edible for me as is, but the majority of the menu can be accommodated to a vegan and/or gluten free diet which is amazing. The mocktails are equally fantastic. Watching the chefs at work in the open kitchen is the best, and the Management team and Madison in Events are always the most generous and accommodating. If you are so lucky to have service from Joseph, you will leave a very happy and full man! Can't wait to be back in the summer for Jungle Brunch!

The food is always on-point. Incredible selection, so much to try. Always good for a group, either pickup or dine-in. However, service is an issue as they awkwardly require everything to be paid for at the cash and guests can’t order anything to the table. It’s high quality, just note that there’s lots of extra charges for sauces and such, and the cost for additional wraps, especially gluten free, is disproportionately high.

Tabule has always been my favourite restaurant, my top choice for lunch in the neighborhood. The menu offers a variety of healthy options including gluten free items. The staff here are all pleasant and helpful especially Mina. I look forward to see her there every time.

Beth Scannell

Lebanese Garden catered our holiday event in December. The food was delivered right on time, set up very professionally, and everything was delicious. They were also able to cover all our special needs (gluten free, vegan, etc.) We got many compliments from the attendees! We will be sure to call them again for our next event!

Doug Johnson

I am addicted to their falafel in a pita. It's perfection. Note they also have a gluten free wrap that my wife loves.

Emma Laitila

Everything was perfect! I would 1000% recommend coming here. The staff were personable and helpful, the food blew us away in beauty and flavour, and the atmosphere is cozy. We are already planning our next visit. I am gluten free (not celiac) and the menu had a ton of options, and our server was knowledgeable about the menu and helped me pick a lot of options with alternatives if needed.

The food is delicious but the service was annoying. Many different and uncoordinated waiters served us. They took advantage of the fact that we are tourists to make them pay for mineral water when it is clear that this is not what they intended. They serve gluten-free pasta (I don't usually like corn pasta, but it was good and well-made) but there is no marking on the menu about dishes that can be served gluten-free, and verbally they gave confused answers. We made a reservation in advance and yet we were seated at the bar. There was annoying music in the background throughout the event.

Kash Arora

Great service, and good food! No complaints :) I got the Mediterranean Shakshuka and the Landwer Iced Tea. The Shakshuka was pretty standard although I wish it was a bit warmer because the eggs were a tad bit too runny. I got the Shakshuka with gluten free bread but it was just standard grocery store toast lol. However, the tea was delicious and refreshing! No wait time on a weekday lunch which was SO surprising considering this place is always packed. Highly recommend joining the waitlist before going to the restaurant to avoid long wait times.

Marion Ho

Rebecca was very welcoming and was very patient and polite serving us seniors. Enjoyed my gluten free pizza

SRS

Ordered from catering for a few things for the Rosh Hashana meal: Brisket Potato Kugel Chicken soup with matzo balls The food was delicious! Ellen was a pleasure to work with, was very attentive to allergy restrictions and food safety. We had celiac, nut, sesame and fish allergies to contend with. Will definitely be ordering from them again for my next event.

S ghazi

Outstanding food and service. Many gluten free options. Lamb shank and lamb rack were delicious and halal. The seafood stew was the star. Staff are super friendly. One of the best in Toronto.

Shaddy Saneie

Decided to walk into this restaurant recently & had a great experience. The server was very knowledgeable regarding allergies. I mentioned my gluten & dairy one and he didn’t hesitate to go through the whole menu with me to show me which items they could accommodate. We ordered the potatoes, octopus & Eggplant dip. The dip was sweeter than what I was expecting. The octopus was delicious, I wish the portion was a touch bigger, & the potatoes were very crispy & well seasoned.

Jeanelle Sequeira

Ordering catering from Ghazale for events is the best decision you can make. They are very timely, all of the food comes at the perfect temperature, packaged simply and well, with food labels and all. It is a great option if you are having a party where people are vegan, vegetarian and/or gluten free. Very grateful to Ghazale for making such wonderful food, and providing great service. It is a big help and everyone in my community has loved your food.

attila veber

Food and service was excellent. Real authentic Greek cuisine. Gluten free options. High quality. Will go again. Thank you.

Seher Shafiq

Excellent fresh food, good portions, great service. They have gluten free bread and options too.

Tsu Ching Yu

Beautiful place! With good vegan and gluten-free options. Had a wonderful time!

Krystle Manintveld

Great for gluten free eaters.

Seher Shafiq

Great restaurant. Fresh and tasty food and they were attentive to my gluten-free dietary restriction. Excellent staff, the chef even came out to meet every table and ask how we are enjoying the food.

Barbs T

We went to this place on my birthday and it was quite a treat. The ambiance was nice and the service was great. I did find the portions so small for all the dishes except the fried chicken. Everything tasted so good and especially loved that they could very easily accommodate gluten free. I would go back but just for the fried chicken and cake for dessert.

Kyle Burson

Had a large group during a slow period, so we had lots of attention from the server. Found the service to be above average on the whole and very hospitable. Food tasted great and they were able to accommodate a gluten free request of one of our party members. Great GF crust, very fluffy and similar to a normal crust.

Alanna Cartier

Excellent food, and profoundly filling. I got the Chicken Jalfrezi (because it was gluten free) and my husband got the meatball starter and the Chicken Tikka Masala Sandwich. We would have loved to have dessert but we were stuffed. The ambiance is also quite lovely, but the service was a little slow. It took some time for our order to be taken and even longer to get our final bill.

K Corail

Was visiting a friend and couldnt help but stop at Falafel World. They were my favorite falafel restaurant since high school and i missed their food so much. Everything is made from scratch and they can list all ingredients and customize food for gluten free customers. Im totally hooked again and only want to eat their falafels ♥️♥️♥️

Michaela Rocha

I had walked past and noted how great the food smelled at lunch service and decided to bring my mother and aunt (gluten free, dairy free and a vegetarian!) to try their dinner service. When I asked about gluten free/dairy free options the staff were amazing and broke down on the menu what would be safe and what wasn’t able to be changed. The food was delicious, we particularly loved the seasonal hummus (Ontario peach hummus) and the modded broccolini muhammara. We tried 4 different dishes and 2 deserts and were very satisfied with our food. Overall the staff were incredible with thoughtful service and the food was stellar.

Eat With Buns (EatWithBuns)

Gluten-Free Options: Yes - but risk of cross contamination Halal/Kosher: Unsure Vegan Option: Yes Vegetarian Options: Yes Nut Free Options: Yes -but risk of cross contamination Dairy Alternatives: No First Impression: A cozy family owned restaurant. Order: Halibut fish and chips and grilled halibut with coleslaw and fries. Favourite: The fish. It’s high quality and has a great taste even when it’s fried or grilled. Make sure to get their homemade sauce as it really complements the fish. Critiques: Adding dietary restrictions to the menu could be helpful to some customers. Bonus: Their menu has a Greek twist to it with items such as Greek salad, baklava, saganaki and dolmades. Take Away: A hidden gem in the city. We will definitely be returning.

Wanting to try this place for a while so we decided to order some takeout. Got classic hummus starter, Chicken Shawarma plate, and Chicken Paprikash plate. The Chicken Shawarma was definitely the highlight, great taste. The Paprikash was not really a Paprikash; was more of a half chicken with some dill on it and a mediocre Paprikash-like sauce on the side and no perceived sour cream. Paprikash should be combined with meat and a thicker sauce. That was also a bit dry. Hummus was good. Pita and Challah was kept separate for my gluten restriction, but my partner said it was good. Biggest problem is price to quantity ratio. Two mains and a starter for $110 after tax (no tip) for the amount of food we got was insane. We were expecting more trimmings and meat according to the pictures on the website. The food was good enough to return, but probably the worst value I’ve experienced in a long time. Service was ok. Had to call 4 times to get a hold of someone because website was not accepting orders. The atmosphere is nice, but we did not dine-in. Probably will not be returning, although I would if the cost was 25%+ lower.

Jason Haug

Incredible flavorful pizza in a re-invented way. A breath of fresh air. As someone with a gluten, dairy and egg intolerance, this place was a DREAM!!!! Highly recommend and will be back for sure!

Franco Cicchetti

I enjoy the food and the staff has been nice there in the past. They have numerous gluten free options. Gluten free pro tip. Under most of their dishes they place pita bread under the food. Ask them not to if you are gluten free. Remind them about it and have the server tell the kitchen.. Takeout available and uber eats

Noemi J

Kamal was the best server ever, he made the visit awesome and catered to our every request! He made our day Food was amazing. GLUTEN FREE! VEGETARIAN! VEGAN! Perfect for any group with multiple different food preferences etc

Bruce Galler

We had a wonderful meal at Bar Reyna. Especially wonderful was our waitress, Victoria, who was super attentive to everyone's needs, especially knowing which dishes were dairy and/or gluten-free. That coupled with her positive attitude made everyone happy. A great evening for everyone.

DANIEL LIPTON

What a fabulous restaurant. The food was delicious and Iris was wonderful. I have Celiac disease and the were very knowledgeable, walking me through each ingredient on the menu. I can’t recommend this place enough

JEEPXRS

The only reason why I'm giving a three-star is because I'm on a carnivore diet only eating a meat diet you need to ask the guys behind the counter to not give you the chicken skewers that are soaked in potato starch which gave me unbelievable heartburn after been doing carnivore 3 months so I have detox my body out of all gluten and sugars and that was murder that night the beef skewers was on point came right off the barbecue on my plate other than that everything was okay

Erica

Excellent food, amazing service, a separate frier for the fries which made them gluten free which was a nice treat. Lamb chops were cooked to perfection and the calamari was so tender. Absolutely will return to this great spot on St.Clair West.

David Hines

I went on a Saturday night at 5pm, and had a wonderful meal with a group of 8. The staff were so kind, very accommodating, and highly attentive. The interior is gorgeous and very chic! The menu was great with many different types of proteins. One of us was gluten free and had no issues. All the food was delicious and had beautiful presentation. So many great dishes to share - Brussels, cauliflower steak, polenta fries, burrata. We all loved our entrees - shrimp pasta cooked to perfection, papardelle with meat sauce, hummus bowl, salmon, lamb. Would definitely return!

Stavros Samaras

The food is great, and they even have gluten-free pitas.

Lilian

Came here for Valentine’s Day. Food was good and the restaurant had an upscale atmosphere. Great for seafood lovers. Gluten free options were limited.

Emerald Lacaille

The staff were super kind! I’m celiac and they were able to assist me with a gluten free option (as best they could given they also serve wheat). Food is really tasty!

Swapnil Joshi

Extremely delicious food and very authentic to the ones I have tried back in the middle east.. the staff was very helpful in explaining each item on the menu and was very friendly to talk to. This is indeed one of the several hidden gems in Toronto.. I had their koshari while my partner had a ful sandwich and we both were delighted by the taste. Definitely a spot one should try. This works for everyone including vegans, vegetarians and gluten free folks. Even if you are craving dessert, I would highly recommend trying out the kunafa which is not overly sweet but will end your sweet tooth cravings

Michelle Saville

This place is SO GOOD. From the food to the overall experience. This gluten free Celiac was well taken care of.

dadofnateandlexie

Love it. Cater to gluten and dairy allergies beautifully. Food is extraordinary.

Victoria Labelle (Vicky)

Good gluten free good in a mall setting.

Max Liboiron

So very friendly & made dishes gluten free for us. It took extra time so gave us free tea and sweets. Inexpensive and good lunch.

Fahd Pasha

Delicious. Best in the city, gluten-free options, great service. Not surprisingly, can get very crowded - but worth the wait!

François Ouellette

Lots of vegetarian options and also gluten-free. Large portions and menu items can vary from time to time. Friendly staff. It's Middle-East with a twist of Indian! Try it.

Allanah Lennox

Great service and was very helpful with helping me find gluten free options. Food was delicious!

Alysha Coughler

Went there on a whim since everywhere else was packed in Greek town. Got a nice seat in the front window. Server was knowledgeable about allergen as one guest has celiac disease. Everything was confirmed with the kitchen. Food came out fairly quickly and portions were generous. Had the dolmades and octopus for starters and chicken souvlaki for a main. Would definitely recommend people check this place out!

Gigi's Frills

Absolutely delicious food! I am Celiac and need to follow a strict gluten free diet, the owner was happy to go through safe options with me and there are so many yummy options to choose from! Falafel are naturally gluten free and these are in a fryer separate from flour - yay! My go to however is grilled chicken, rice, loads of veggies, pickles and smothered in tahini! Always tasty and a great value!

Anita Fackoury

I recently ordered food for a big Family get together on the weekend! I didn’t realize that Jimmy the Greek did catering. I was pleasantly surprised and highly recommend them for your next get together! The people working there are so nice and helpful with the ordering! The young woman who helped me and the young cook were exceptional! They were very eager to help me with my order. The food was amazing! Everyone commented on how good it was! It was ready on time and they helped to bring it to our vehicle. The chicken was juicy and tasty! Also our gluten free Family members were happy to be able to eat as well! Also the price was great! I did look around to other Mediterranean places and honestly price and quality were far better at Jimmy the Greeks! ( Fairview park mall Kitchener) Thank you to the owner and staff ! Keep up the Good Work!

Meg Inwood

Neighbourhood fixture for at least 3 decades. Definitely dine in, not take-out. Many small dishes usually shared by diners. About five dishes per diner is usually about right. Able to cover vegetarian & gluten-free; vegan slightly more limited but you'll still do fine.
